Ferrara

Nine kilometres of defensive walls surround the heart of
Ferrara, delimiting the old city. Designed and built mainly
as fortifications starting in the early seventh century, today
they are expansive gardens enjoyed by locals and visitors
during their time off, and so much more

From Ecletism to Rationalism: 20 years of fascist regime profoundly influenced the development of architecture and urbanism in Italy. In Ferrara, the area between the Monumental Acqueduct and Largo Antonioni hosts several buildings which tell this story

Along the ancient Via di San Francesco, the main thoroughfare of the new districts commissioned by Niccolò III and an elegant street in the Medieval city, stand many palazzos, patrician residences and major churches.

From the Anse Vallive di Ostellato the route goes alongside the reclaimed land of the Mezzano, crosses the Bando Reserve and the Anse vallive di Porto and, after the Oasi Trava, reaches Argenta and its lagoons.

Ravenna and Ferrara are brought together in one pleasing journey. These are two centres of art with UNESCO World Heritage recognition rich in unmissable details: exhibitions, museums, monuments, churches.

Berra

This journey takes from Venice's public transport network as far as Chioggia, crosses the rivers Brenta and Adige, and unwinds southwards through the landscape created by the River Po in its slow progress towards the Adriatic, which gave life to one of the broadest wetland zones of the European Mediterranean: The Po Delta. It arrives in Ferrara along the 'Destra Po' route.
